Next steps
Our Education Committee has agreed the above future policy, aiming for implementation late in 2024. This timeframe allows for the development of the national EMS database, which is needed to facilitate the new approach, and any piloting of this in advance of the changes.
Prior to this, our recently updated EMS policy within the 2023 RCVS accreditation standards for veterinary degree programmes comes into effect in January 2023 (appendix 1).
We look forward to continuing to work with all our stakeholders in taking this important work forward.
